A WOMAN of ample figure and al en red tart is lying ae

one foot reflected in the corner of a pond which creeps into

accompanying a fast-traveling summer thunder-storm. — 

The landscape of the foreground is still dark in the storm- 
cloud’s shadow—here a farmer is driving his sheep—while 
beyond some trees and a low hill on the right, where smoke 
curls from a cottage chimney, light breaks from the west- _

roofed white building, on the left, where the rain is still 
pouring down. Overhead the storm-cloud is black. — 
Beyond the valley, distant hills are coming out of the
